You're standing at the Villa Hammerschmidt in Bonn, nicknamed the White House of Bonn. There's a good reason for that. From 1950 to 1994 this was where the German head of state lived and worked. For decades the villa stood as a symbol of West Germany and of Bonn as its capital. Glance up at the flagpole. If the president's standard is flying, the president is in town right now.
